015 was a very successful vintage in Margaret River, by all accounts, and this Bordeaux-style blend from Moss Wood is quite beautiful. It’s also relatively inexpensive for the quality. While you can drink it now, it should age really well.

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot from the Glenmore vineyard, weighing in at 14.5% alcohol. Ripe but very fresh with tangy blackcurrant fruit, a twist of tar and eucalypt, and fresh acidity. Lovely combination of fruit, structure and savoury spiciness. Well balanced and potentially age worthy. Still a little angular now, but I think that’s a good thing in a young wine like this.
